How to install nginx on Centos.

Add nginx repo first. To add it, create the file /etc/yum.repos.d/nginx.repo with you favorite text editor, for example:

nano /etc/yum.repos.d/nginx.repo

Then insert the strings below and save the file:

[nginx]
name=nginx repo
baseurl=http://nginx.org/packages/centos/$releasever/$basearch/
gpgcheck=0
enabled=1

Now you can install nginx with a simple command:

yum install nginx

To start nginx and allow it to start at boot:, type:

service nginx start
chkconfig nginx on

If nginx doesn't start, make sure you haven't httpd service running and listening the same port (80). You can display running services with the command:

top

If you want to turn off httpd and disable it to start at boot, enter:

service httpd stop
chkconfig httpd off
